<Gold to dollar stayed at $22.67 from 1792 to 1934, when FDR raised the price to $35. The less knowledgeable don't understand that's what happened, they just look at the price hike, and assume it was due to market forces.> HM mining took off after the crash and never looked back due to inreasing EPS at a 41% growth rate compounded annually .... the less knowledgeable look for excuses as to why [like a one time 50% hike in '34] because it doesn't make sense to them that the price of anything could rise during a 'depression'. I think what's happening in Japan [depression] is a good example of what people did in the 30's here. {I know, we're NOT Japan... but maybe they are us back then} DAK
